Overview
The Sony E 18–135mm F3.5–5.6 OSS Lens is an excellent pick for capturing landscapes and close-up shots with your mirrorless camera. This lens is made for Sony E-mount APS-C sensor cameras. Its optical design comprises 16 elements arranged in 12 groups, which includes 2 ED and a single aspherical element to correct spherical and chromatic aberrations. The linear AF motor offers an accurate, fast, yet silent autofocus operation. You can change between the focusing methods with the AF/MF switch. Thanks to the Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization, the effects of camera shakes are reduced in the shot. The rounded 7 diaphragm blades create a smooth bokeh quality. A 58mm circular filter can be attached to the front thread.
